4 * Handling of metadata written to backup snapshots. This manages the writing
5 * of file metadata into new backup snapshots, including breaking the metadata
6 * log apart across separate objects. Eventually this should include unified
7 * handling of the statcache, and re-use of metadata between snapshots.
